Did someone say staycation?! Oh, yup, that was us. Here at Girl Gang, we’re big fans of a good staycation. They’re the best way to truly relax, unwind and refresh – from the comfort of your own city. No plane ticket or time off needed! In December, we hosted our Christmas Cocktail Party at The W Atlanta – Midtown and thought, why not make this a staycation? Sooo, that’s exactly what we did.
Whether you’re looking to book a trip to Atlanta or want to indulge in a staycation, read on to learn about our amazing experience at the W Midtown.
The Room
The rooms at the W are very minimal and classic – just the way we like them! Not to mention they were recently renovated. We had beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows with a city view, overlooking the hustle and bustle of Midtown and a peek at Piedmont Park just up the street. A city view, comfortable bed, 24 hour room service and lots of open space, what more could you ask for? If you’re in need of a mid-day pick me up, make sure you stop at Rise, the coffee shop in the Living Room – the oat milk latte is to die for!
Happy Hour in The Living Room
After checking in, we got ready for our ATL Girl Gang Christmas Cocktail Party and went downstairs to enjoy a pre-party cocktail in the newly remodeled Living Room. Talk about an elevated, instagrammable hotel bar! This space is so sleek and stylish, it’s unreal. Between the marble + gold table tops, comfy velvet couches, outdoor terrace, addicting truffle fries and delicious cocktails, this might just be one of our new favorite ATL happy hour spots – hotel guest or not!
Fa La La Ladies Christmas Party
The W – Midtown is not only a great hotel, but a great event space! We hosted our Almost Roaring 20’s Halloween Party and our recent Christmas Cocktail Party in the incredibly beautiful and luxurious Living Room, just a step from the hotel lobby. Check out the photos below from our latest event in this space by Alex Carlton Miller.
The Spa
We could all use a little R&R after the busy holiday season. We can’t think of a better idea than a trip to the spa! Whether you fancy facial treatments, massages, or manicures/pedicures, the W Spa has got it all! We went with a facial and a massage. Go big or go home, am I right?! No exaggeration, this spa experience was top notch. We can easily say these treatments were some of the best we’ve ever had. The staff is incredibly kind, helpful + comforting and the space is super zen. For the cherry on top, you’re greeted with a glass of champagne following your treatment. BRB booking another spa day here ASAP. You should too!
Okay, ladies, there you have it: our staycation recap of The W Atlanta – Midtown. We highly recommend The W for your next vacay, staycation, or even your next happy hour date.
